Already blocked. There is a sockpuppet cat for this user already at Category:Wikipedia sockpuppets of Ghso ehwj with multiple identified accounts, but there had never been an SPI page. I am also in the process of writing an LTA. Notably older than the other accounts associated with this vandal, whose calling card is a fictional Mexican TV channel called "BabyKids" and also has some edits at eswiki and Commons. Requesting checkuser to see if previously blocked user accounts had the same IP address, as there has not been a consolidated case yet for the user. Raymie (t • c) 21:11, 11 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Added two additional accounts discovered in the process of working on this. They mostly have edits and activity on eswiki, but the activity is much the same there too. Raymie (t • c) 21:25, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Created the deleted draft Draft:WONCE, which I did not see until I noticed the deletion message on talk page was to another IP. It's more of the same—fake TV stations. Requesting CU on the off chance this IP is tied to yet more user accounts that can be banned. Raymie (t • c) 05:26, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Moved from below by This user usually vandalizes the Spanish Wikipedia about fake TV channels in Mexico, especially one called "BabyKids". Lately, this user has been active on the English Wikipedia as well. The drafts the user has created (User:BabyKids2019(2)/sandbox/Jok Juos and Draft:WONCE) were made to create hoax articles as the user has done it before in the Spanish Wikipedia, those drafts should be deleted. The user has also uploaded several fake logos to both Wikimedia and Wikipedia.


 * Fixing manually formatted submission (was submitted as closed). Also I am assuming you want CU? &#91;Username Needed&#93; 11:55, 27 February 2019 (UTC)


 * Might be useful given the volume of account creations of his. I just slapped a speedy tag on the draft article. NB the user making this report is a very constructive editor on Mexican broadcasting articles (both enwiki and eswiki) who's not familiar with enwiki reporting policies.

Edited a bunch of Mexican TV articles and templates to add fictional "ONCE.3" and "Canal Veinte Niños" channels that don't exist. Suspecting sock of our BabyKids vandal due to the subject material of nonexistent kids channels in Mexico. Raymie (t • c) 02:13, 6 August 2019 (UTC)

Continual edits around the article XHL-TDT, including claiming that completely unrelated stations in Mexico rebroadcast it. On eswiki, Uhfdgh's only edits are to his user talk, where he linked to a YouTube video (of XHL station identifications) uploaded by the account "Veinte Niños TV" (see above — this has been inserted to pages by this vandal). The IPv6 range 2806:10a6:15::/48 was blocked 2 months on eswiki in October for being used by a habitual evader; in the contributions in that range is more XHL spam and also insertions to lists of fake TV stations.

 * Hjajaajaajaj and Uhfdgh are ✅ to each other and very to Fgna Losn in the SPI archive. . . Mz7 (talk) 06:00, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Somebody's using IPv6 talk pages in that range to store copies of articles. Not sure we want to block a /48, though.  -- RoySmith (talk) 16:40, 14 November 2019 (UTC)
 * Oh fun. Two of them are new: more fake Mexican TV stations (that table is from List of television stations in Puebla with 13 fake additions) and a fake shopping center. (The other two seem to have been removed in prior actions.) The first one definitely brings us closer to the rest of the BabyKids stuff. Interestingly the eswiki version of our sockpuppet cat has about 20 more confirmed socks of Ghso ehwj than ours. Raymie (t • c) 18:00, 14 November 2019 (UTC)


 * I see that has gone ahead and blocked the /48 range, so it looks like there's nothing left to be done here.  Closing.  -- RoySmith (talk) 00:52, 16 November 2019 (UTC)

Canal Veinte and Veinte Niños hoaxes again: Special:Diff/981741201. First activity in nearly 9 months. One or two similar edits at eswiki. Wonder if more accounts can be ferreted out. Raymie (t • c) 02:28, 5 October 2020 (UTC)

 * - Agreed that there is behavioral overlap with the sockmaster. Case archives show lots of sleepers, CU endorsed for sleeper check, all known past accounts are stale. GeneralNotability (talk) 12:41, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Bovo Animated and ✅. Definitely worth continuing to request a sleeper check here. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 22:23, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
